Former state school employee Jerrold Tibstra, who retired in March 2016, saved $47,433 toward a pension over 18 years working for public schools, Teachers' Retirement System of the State of Illinois records show.

Over 30 years of retirement, Tibstra would collect as much as $1.2 million, according to a projection by Local Government Information Services (LGIS), which publishes Kankakee Times.

The projection assumes Tibstra received $25,309 in the first year of retirement, then 3 percent annual increases thereafter, compounded.

After 2 years of retirement, Tibstra will have already received $51,377 in retirement benefits, or more than the sum total of the retiree's contributions to the teachers' pension fund.
